I read that the LED lit LCDs although look sharp, are harder on the eyes (viewing fatigue).
I don't know why Panasonic would stop making plasmas. Also I learned that one of the cons of plasma, the high power usage is no longer so true. My 50" is rated at nearly 800W which concerned me quite a bit, but I measured the current w/ a Monster power conditioner and figure that average may be closer to 200W. I think that it uses similar or less power than my old 53" Pioneer Elite rear projection set. I learned that a black screen uses 100W or less when on, and a full white screen uses close to 500W max, but one never constantly displays a white screen. So the power usage is quite proportional to the picture and much less than anti-plasma people would have you believe.
